    This is a great recipe, but instead of simmering the veggies in water, I use salt-free chicken or beef broth for extra flavor. Also, I add about a tablespoon of S&B Oriental Curry Powder (a really good Japanese brand available at Asian markets and in some grocery stores) to the simmering veggies for an extra kick.

    When I’m looking up how to make a particular dish I never want to see a step that includes adding a pre-made ingredient. I.E. when I look up how to make curry I don’t want to see “Add Curry Roux”
    There is a difference between a recipe and opening a package and adding it to some meat. this may as well me a recipe for making store bought hamburger helper.
